Said it before say it again Brazil wins the cup yahhee. Btw this might be a really weird question and one that you all will get angry but will ask.
Why the heck do they have this confederation cup anyway? Is it like a trailer to a movie.
So people remember there is a world cup next summer.

Gotta luv the Italians and the way they played. They really played the best game I've seen this confederations cup. I'm not gonna lie it was funny to see Spain struggling to find possession and they had no rhythm going on and supposedly that's what their good at. Its pretty sad to see all of Italy's chances not taken which makes you wish Mario didn't get injuired because he would have buried those opportunities in a heartbeat but good effort on Italy thought. Giaccherini,Maggio and Canderva were pretty impressive to watch. Italy has nothing to be ashamed of, they played their own game, with their own style and nearly won and with perfection. They may have lost the game but they have won the battle.

Italy does seem more prepared to play Spain. But spain is very comfortable to deal with defensive minded teams. Only if Italian coach does something out of the ordinary nothing new to see in today's game.

To make matters worst I am sure crazy money is probably riding on a Spain and Brazil final might just put a lot of pressure on the refs to you know what.

My take Spain Brazil final , Brazil wins by hook or crook and everyone happy to accept the world cup 2014.

Oh do agree with you on that. To me the 352 is the out of the ordinary not the junk 441. That idiotic behavior is the reason why Italy is a nightmare to watch and the only other team that was the same is the back in the dsy inter where they had all the best strike force but all played defensive to make them look so boring. Not the mourihno one.

You guys are underestimating italy imo. don't forget when they had full squad they played 1-1 draw with spain in the euro ( or almost had defeated them). Italy was the better side in the second half of that game. In the final, italy was suffering from injuries to their star players and that affected their game. When it comes to big matches italy has always proved everyone wrong.!!

Last three matches between italy and spain - Win to italy, 1-1 draw and 4-1 loss.Considering spain is the world and euro champion i don't think its bad??!!

You comparing Spain of 2009 with the current Spain?
Thats laughable because their squad depth is ridiculous. Their B team would beat any team in the world. Don't forget how Japan outplayed you the whole game.
What makes you think Spain won't? they got clinical finishers , something Japan lacked lol.
Having said all that, anything can happen I was just writting off Italy as part of the banter.
